Ahmadinejad sez West is gonna get it
2006-07-14
Tehran, Iran, Jul. 13 – Radical Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad warned the European Union on Thursday that it would stand to suffer if it increased pressure on Iran to abandon its nuclear program. “We have moved in the path of our rights and the law but unfortunately, they [the West] want to use this proposal as a pretext to increase pressure on us. We advise them to be patient” Ahmadinejad told a crowd in the north-western town of Miyaneh. His comments were reported by the state-run news agency ISNA.

“If you create a conflict, it will be you who will suffer the consequences”, he said in comments directed at the West. “Until now, we have moved in the framework of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and agreements, but they must know that if the Iranian nation reaches the conclusion that they are not sincere in their actions and proposals it will reconsider its policies”, Ahmadinejad said.

“The Europeans will be the ones that suffer from any problem that arises. We do not seek a conflict but they must know that they cannot hurt the Iranian nation”, he added.

#20  We do not seek a conflict but they must know that they cannot hurt the Iranian nation.

Maybe the Europeans can't hurt the Persians, but Kurds can. After all, HPG blew one of their military helicopters out of the sky the day before yesterday.

Hehehe. . . stupid Ecems.

#18  If teachers were more vigilant and stopped the little guys from getting their heads flushed in the school toilets, then maybe these things wouldn't happen.

#17  Tie this in with the topic above about the Mad Mullahs needing to import gasoline already, maybe the MM's are closer to overthrow than we think. Keep up the pressure, and Israel will smack 'em and hard. I'm still not optimistic of the "Iranian Street uprising"(tm) to overthrow the MM's, but signs are that this is for domestic consumption to blame the Joooooooss.

#14  Ahmadinejad says (a lot of crap) an attack against Syria is an attack against the muslim world. Not certain that's a big whoop. I wonder what the shites in Iraq would think about any attacks on either Iran or Syria.

#13  I think you may be right, the time has come for Iran to prove that they have the machismo to be a regional power. I havent seen shit yet, just a bunch of windy bullshit. I wonder how shiites in Iran would feel about going to war over Alawites in Syria? But if it was to fight Israel,I guess any excuse would do.

#12  Just try it, fancypantsboy. We'll show you the true meaning of pain.

I don't think Israel will hit Syria unless they have a full act of agression from the Syrians (not counting it out, BabyA is a moron) but will sure make the supply roads from Syraia roads leading only to death.

#11  phil_b - Iran that soon? I've been thinking Israel will start hitting Syria any day now first, thus forcing Iran to either defend their proxy or look chicken.

#10  Expect an Israeli attack on Iran in the next 48 hours. I'm sure subs are positioning right now.

#9  "7. It is not clear to me how the West is awakened to this danger."

My guess: about 1 person in 20 is fully aware of the menace we face, and is clear that it simply MUST be dealt with if we are to survive.

The rest are either confused, or indifferent, or too busy watching sitcoms and "reality TV" shows to care, or so blinded by Bush-hatred they don't want to face the danger.

Frankly, I'm not optimistic.

#8  We advise them to be patient” Ahmadinejad told a crowd

1. This means wait until we have a nuclear capability with which we can destroy you.

2. Adolph Hitler got a pass early on. Those wanting to appease Hitler are on the dust heap of history--considered naively dangerous (much like the LLL today).

3. The end game for these islamofacists is to destroy the West from within and from without. They have been at war with us for many years whether we [the West] have realized it or not.

4. Diplomacy will not work. Diplomacy is viewed as weakness by the Islamofacists. Diplomacy is viewed as an opportunity to gain advantage not meet in good faith.

5. These facists think of us [the West] as morally and culturally inferior to them--a peoples to be used for their benefit; otherwise to be destroyed.

6. They believe they are destined to rule the world. All that is going on right now is a part of the "grand plan."

7. It is not clear to me how the West is awakened to this danger. One of the problems of a democracy is that there is a tolerance for other peoples and cultures. Democracies tend to have open door policies regarding immigration creating a danger from within for those bent on destroying our way of life.

8. War appears to be at hand. Iran and Syria are fighting Israel and the United States through proxies; i.e. hezbollah and hamas. These skirmishes are just buying time for Syria and Iran--these are distractions from the ultimate main game.

The question is, what is to be done? Destroy the proxies now or go after the sources of the problems, Iran and Syria? It seems to me we pay now or we pay more later.

#5  I'm not much of a historian, but isn't this the sort of thing Hitler said in the '30's?
